Final Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Update Adds Chaos and VS Modes

The final Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night update will come to consoles and PCs in May 2024, adding Chaos and VS modes and both paid and free cosmetic costumes for Miriam. While the Switch gets it on May 16, 2024, every other platform gets the update on May 9, 2024. 

The free additions to Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night involve the Chaos and VS modes and a free cosmetic pack. The two modes were originally the last Kickstarter stretch goals. Chaos is a randomized multiplayer mode where people work together locally or online to survive as long as possible. Versus is a competitive online or local mode that involves a split screen and defeating waves of monsters to buy upgrades, mess with your opponent, and make it easier for you to be the last one standing. As for the free Miriam costume in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, that cosmetic pack is based on Shantae. It’s a nod to WayForward’s involvement with the game.

There will be three paid cosmetics launched alongside 1.5. Their names weren’t revealed in the update, but official art offered a peek at them. Each Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night upcoming Cosmetic Pack includes a costume and equipment for Miriam. There is also a stat bar for each one if you put it all on at once. 

While this is the final Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night update, there will be one last piece of DLC. Classic Mode II: Dominique’s Curse is in development. That features an original story and map. 

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is available for the PS4, Switch, Xbox One, and PC, and the final update. comes to most platforms on May 9, 2024 and the Switch on May 16, 2024. The physical PC release will follow the release of this final update.
